    Servers are currently located in Montreal, to serve both NA and EU originally. Having moved EU servers to an EU based datacenter, NA still suffers awful latency due to location. When they move the datacenter, our connectivity will improve drastically, while yours will jump to 500+

    Edit: Also, lol@Cactuar, I thought this was a midcore server

    Well yes - I'm just saying it's 6k kilometres away, from where are people connecting to get 500+ MS? Even New Zealand over in Australia is only 14k kilometres away and should proportionally offer around 300-400 MS.

    Actually I just tried - I can connect to Sydney at around 300 MS latency, that's 16k kilometres distance! Gee, I'm inclined to believe the routing horror stories in the US net now.
